Jamison Daniel Meyer was born into the loving arms of his parents on October 16th 2002. “Shorty,” who grew to be the tallest of his family, passed away at home on March 5th 2021. Jamison was brought home after his birth to a rough and tumble life with seven older brothers. He never missed a beat of the fast-paced household and grew with a love for Star Wars, competition, and running. Jamie ran both track and cross country and was a strong influence on the teams, leading by being an example of hard work and dedication. He was a good teammate, an excellent classmate, and a great friend. As much as he loved beating their track records, Jamison loved playing games with his brothers even more. His older brothers agree that, without a doubt, he always will be the greatest brother of all. He was adored by his nieces and nephew and made time to play and build couch forts with each visit. Our memories of Jamison shine bright like the stars he loved to watch. He shared his joy in and knowledge of the stars with others helping them to see and experience the wonders of the heavens. Jamison was not the kind of young man who drew much attention to himself. He was quiet and kind and strong willed. His soul possessed a gentleness and goodness which he generously bestowed upon others. He would not want any tears shed on his behalf. He would prefer, instead, we honor him by showing love and kindness to one another. Jamison will greatly be loved by his parents, Brian and Mary Meyer, as well as his older brothers Jacob (Mikael), Jordan (Meridith), Seth (Hillary), Joshua, Matthew, Nathaniel and Benjamin (Megan), his maternal grandmother Muriel, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, and his nieces and nephew. He is preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Arnold and Jeanne Meyer, maternal grandfather Wendell, and older brother, Mark.
